[ There's no rush on his end! He's outside of the library, loitering by the entrance and keeping an eye on the sky for Uriel's arrival. He'd been hoping to avoid his housemates with this strange cough of his growing worse with each passing day, but the more he stays away, the more suspicious it'll seem to be as absent as he is.
So he may as well check in with someone... And maybe he'll ask Uriel to tell everyone that he's fine? He just has to pass off as fine now... ]
[ Uriel will land not too far from him, wings fluttering a bit as she does and a quick exhale. curse this place for making it so much exhausting now...
Once she's close by enough, she has to fight the urge to hug him as if they haven't seen each other in millenia (though it feels like it with his absences.. ) ]
You weren't waiting too long, were you Dokja-yah? [ as she asks, her gaze does flicker to the rest of him as if to ensure he's okay. ]
[ As soon as Uriel lands, Dokja greets her with a smile, partly because he really is glad to see her and partly because he is doing his best "I'm fine" cosplay.
... Which is immediately ruined by a sharp cough that feels like it's been punched out of him. His free hand immediately comes up to cover his mouth as he chokes down a second cough, and then he's waving aside any concern before it befalls him. ]
Sorry about that. [ Look at him... The very picture of health as he tries to clear his throat. ] Not too long, no. Shall we head inside?

[ this is genuine excitement okay. anyways, you bet she'll use up some energy to fly there just to make sure she isn't keeping him waiting. ]
